The Clare

The Clare stands proudly at 55 E Pearson Street in Chicago’s Gold Coast, offering a premier LifeCare senior living experience. As a high-rise community with 52 floors and 481 residences, The Clare provides a comprehensive continuum of care—including independent living, assisted living, memory support, in-patient rehab, and skilled nursing—within a single elegant setting

Residences range from intimate one-bedroom layouts (774 sq ft) to expansive three-bedroom apartments (up to 1,709 sq ft), many featuring balconies and designed for comfort, style, and sweeping city views.

Inside, residents enjoy a rich selection of amenities and services that promote both independence and engagement. The community features a beauty/barber shop, resident and guest parking, housekeeping, linen and clothing laundry, private cleaning, and resident transportation. For social enrichment, there’s a coffee shop, a pool, and a garden and patio. Activities bloom through scheduled music, games, book clubs, yoga, fitness classes led by an on-site exercise physiologist, arts and crafts, gardening, and frequent excursions.

Dining is equally versatile, with options ranging from in-room kitchens to shared dining rooms, room service, guest-inclusive meals, and accommodations for special diets including diabetic, kosher, and vegetarian.

What elevates The Clare is its unwavering commitment to excellence and safety. Managed by Life Care Services, it maintains 24/7 security, emergency call systems, sprinkler systems, and full-time concierge services, while its “LifeCare” model ensures predictable costs and a seamless transition through care levels.

Nestled next to Northwestern Memorial Hospital and steps away from the Museum of Contemporary Art, Lake Michigan, top-tier dining, shopping, and cultural venues, it offers a vibrant urban lifestyle with healthcare and wellness at its heart. This combination of refined residences, robust services, and expert care creates a warm, secure, and fulfilling environment for seniors and their families.
